Vehicle Description
This 1981 Chevrolet Malibu Wagon Restomod is a sleek machine that
has been given a full custom build to be a unique panel delivery.
And with an upgraded V8 under the hood, you know the real work this
versatile sedan delivery does best is haul asphalt.
Chevrolet never built a Nomad or sedan delivery of this Malibu. But
the way this one looks, you swear they did. The custom work is a
pure professional-quality build. They started with a wagon body,
and with its angular style, it's arguably the best-looking wagon of
the era. And now the sheetmetal looks seamless, and they even added
sport mirrors and deleted trim like the door handles to really get
it looking smooth. So the sleek custom side panels look like it's
the perfect place to hang the logo of your fictitious surf board
company. And the reason why this one reminds you of a sunny day at
the beach is because the metallic blue has a nice shine like the
light catching an ocean wave. So it's great to have this color on
the bumpers and custom body kit, too. Even details like the grille
and the steelies inside the Rally wheel package are painted to
match for a thoughtful total look.
The interior takes all the comfy factory Malibu features and adds
in the right custom details. The exterior blue theme continues on
the upholstery, including the full custom carpeted cargo area. Up
front are two high-back bucket seats with a center console
in-between. The AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input means the ideal
driving music. Plus, you got nice sporty upgrades like the Grant GT
steering wheel, floor shifter, auxiliary gauge trio, and Sun Super
Tach. Features like the remote door openers and the R134a air
conditioning will need servicing if you want them fully functional.
The value price on this full custom build helps leave room in the
budget for any improvements like that you may want to make.
A custom build like this deserves a powerful heart, and the engine
bay doesn't disappoint. You're looking at Chevy's mighty 350
cubic-inch V8 that has been upgraded with a Holley four-barrel
carburetor, an aluminum intake, and shorty headers that add power
as they also contribute to the rumble of the dual exhaust. There is
also nice supporting components, like an aluminum radiator and good
belts, hoses, and wires. As a true custom classic, this was built
to cruise. That's why you have great driving features, like the
three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power front
disc brakes, and new wide Cooper Cobra tires.
You're looking at an impressive total package for quite a nice
price. So you know you need to hurry if you want to take this
custom build home. Call today!!!
